Adding +1. Very much need the ability to anonymously submit files to the File Request programatically by whatever means. Be it a REST thing or a .Net API thing.
I've begun trying to reverse engineer the request response stream from the upload page so we could emulate it, but we shouldn't have to do that.
This would be incredibly useful for collecting support data from client locations with a single string. (File Request URL) being the only setting and no credentials required.

No worries.
Of course if you need a beta tester.... I'm just sayin'. 8^)

Adding another +1 to this.
I see it is available in Tray.io but not in Zapier. This makes dropbox a show stopper for me, and I will be forced to use another service for requesting file uploads from clients. Please add this! I see these requests date back +5 years, with MANY users requesting.
What is going on behind the scenes that this cannot be added, Dropbox team?

Mark Abrams Thanks for the feedback! The team decided not to implement the ability to programmatically upload to file requests, but I'll pass this along and follow up here if that changes.
